Week of October 29, 2026

178 changes to the app this week.

This week

A new menu, grouped by season. The old menu had one entry per feature
and had grown long. The same pages are now grouped the way a farm's year runs:
Planting, Growing, Harvest and Winter season, among the year-round sections
(Fields, Map, Financials, Cattle, Equipment, Tasks & calendar, Tools), with
Settings pinned at the bottom. Every view has one row of tabs, at most six,
with the rest behind a "+N ▾". A view used in more than one season is listed
in each, and a ↗ marks the shortcut copy. Several big pages were split into
smaller views: Fertilizer, Cattle, Harvest, Spraying and chemicals, Fuel and
trucking, and Settings. Old addresses and bookmarks still land in the right
place. Each person can choose their own sections, order and phone-bar buttons
for the phone and the computer under Settings → My account → Menu (where the
old menu can be switched back on, for now). An admin can still hide whole
parts of the app for everyone under Settings → Farm setup → Parts of the app.
README.md has a new "Finding your way" section.

New

• Afsc: Fill AFSC's pasture insurance forms, from AFSC's own PDFs
• Afsc: A Pasture insurance page, and the four forms as reports
• App: 'A new version is ready · Update now' bar once a new build has downloaded; update check every 5 min on focus
• App: One big Photo button on the weigh-in (the phone asks camera or gallery); updates load straight away unless a form is open or a box has the cursor
• Bins: The bin view is about what is in it now: current field's loads and yield, edits, no plan or Add once filling
• Bins: Bin yards of the farm's own: add, rename, order, show or hide, delete an empty one
• Bins: A home yard on the Bin yards list; distances to the fields measure from it, not the yard named 'Main Yard'
• Bins: Each bin shows what is in it first (fill bar in the crop's colour, bushels, from where); an empty bin shows its plan, marked as a plan; adding a bin is in Bin settings, deleting one in its Edit panel
• Bins: Add to a bin what did not come off a field — bought seed or fertilizer, or grain left from an earlier year
• Bins: Ship all or some of a bin out, and say where it went; Add, Move and Ship under one Move button
• Bins: A whole bin shipped clears its plan; shipments say where they went in Deliveries and can be corrected
• Bins: Leave out the sensors above the grain, one fan tick, readings signed by name
• Bins: Draw the bin with its sensor readings, on the view and the report
• Bins: The scale photo fills in the weight, the bushels tick the headspace
• Bins: A fan and a heat switch on the bins that have them
• Bins: One movement list, the weighed kilograms, and one settings button
• Bins: Columns for field, kg and driver; changes that say what moved; who weighed it
• Bins: The estimator sizes what is left, and fits a phone
• Canola: Corteva's seed report and bin temperature records, filled from the app and signed in it
• Canola: Corteva's seed report and bin temperature records as two reports
• Contracts: Contracts and scale tickets read as cards on a phone
• Contracts: A contract's own loads, and cards on Grants and Fuel
• Fields: One derived state, safe hail records, and harvest that is off
• Finance: The farm's own fiscal year-end, set on Farm setup
• Harvest: Bin settings (active bins, capacity, bin yards) behind a big ⚙ beside a big calculator icon; Bins tab loses the contents card, hidden-yard tick and the converter
• Harvest: Pre-harvest intervals as their own tab; unallocated and bins-short only on the Bin estimator
• Harvest: Weigh scale tab: a big Weigh in button, loads/kg/averages by truck, trailer or driver, and every scale ticket to open and correct
• Harvest: Bins and the bin map are one view (map left, list right; map on top on a phone); no Weigh in on the bin list, Move/Emptied/delete stay
• Harvest: Scale tickets in sortable, filterable columns (date and time, field, crop, net, driver, truck); truck/trailer/driver figures on their own Stats tab
• Harvest: Four same-size header buttons on every tab (weigh in, moisture reading, calculator, settings); Pre-harvest is a plain table, not folded
• Latlng: One "lat, lng or a Google Maps link" box for a place
• Menu: Season menu on for everyone; old-menu hiding carried over
• Menu: The Map sits right under Home
• Photos: Pump, pivot and scale ticket photos move to Storage
• Progress: Mark a field harvested, grazed or seeded; the last load does it for you
• Public: The demo and the project page can be found
• Public export: The turbine control screens stay out of the public copy
• Reports: Drivers' log: km, driving and on-duty hours by driver and day, from the loads weighed in
• Rotation: The plan starts where planting stopped, and holds more than one crop
• Rotation: Plan, Recommendations and Rules as three tabs
• Rotation: Tick the crops in the running, and the app says what it thinks
• Rotation: Say yes or no with a reason, and the planner remembers
• Rotation: The advisor is told why we chose what we chose
• Rotation: A year is opened, filled in and saved shut
• Rotation: Which crop can follow which, as plain checkboxes
• Schedules: Reminders and alerts at the farm's local hour, not a fixed UTC one
• Setup: Any farm's water sources, herbicide traits, gauges, labs and markets (public copy review item 5)
• Tabs: Weather, River and Turbines keep their tab in ?tab= so links open one
• Trucking: 2026 haul plan for every field; "buyer hauls from the field"
• Trucking: A destination yard per haul plan; feed costed to the yard it unloads at
• Trucks: Yearly semi truck inspection: Alberta trip-inspection checklist, section notes, save and come back, signed off with your signature; report with what needs doing; January reminders
• Weigh in: Scale photos, Teal Kenworth + trailers #1-#4, and a load that fills one bin then goes on into another
• Weigh in: A driver's truck and trailer come from their last load until picked
• Weigh in: Three steps, one at a time: where from and to, weigh, check and save
• Weigh in: A scale photo can be taken with the camera or uploaded from the phone or computer
• Weigh in: Photo choice as a big pop-up; only fields and crops still to weigh; no full bins or hidden yards
• Weigh in: Date and time each load was weighed in and weighed out
• Weigh in: Weigh in and Weigh out are separate steps; the bin is picked at the weigh-out; a truck brings the trailer it last pulled
• Weigh scale: Weighed in and Weighed out as their own columns, each date and time and sortable
• Menu: Spray restrictions belongs to Cattle, not Growing season
• Export: One icon above the table, and it asks CSV or PDF
• Map, notifications: Water under the My Map, location always on, corner buttons; unread-first setting

Changed

• Bin records: Keep CSV beside Excel on the Reports page (every built report offers CSV)

• Cattle in five views with tabs: Pastures, Herd, Feed, Sales & paperwork, Cattle settings
• Combines: Spell out that the stick goes in with the display off
• Corteva bin temperatures: Edit the grower, legal land location and field # (shared with the seed report) and each bin's Corteva bin # right on the bin temperature tab
• Demo: Made-up data for the 48 screens that opened empty
• Equipment service: Kind filter, machine tabs, truck inspections folded in
• Fertilizer split into five views: Soil tests, Fertility plan, Fertilizer prices, Manure, Fertilizer savings
• Fuel: Switch chart lines on and off, zoom buttons and drag-to-move on price charts; Fuel tanks list (holds, capacity, gauge level, room to fill)
• Fuel tanks: A small map with a pin per tank (Pin/Move from the row, drag to move, click to open), pins coloured by fuel
• Fuel tanks: Live levels from the TELUS Farm Inventory gauges every 15 minutes (sign in with the farm's Telus login on Farm setup), horizontal-tank volume, reading history, auto-pin from gauge GPS
• Harvest: Truck forecast per field (forecast bushels ÷ average load, counting down as loads are weighed), on/off per person; Clay's truck and trailer archived, kept in history, out of the average and the weigh-in defaults
• Harvest: Reports tab (bin monitoring BASF + Corteva, seed reports, loads/yields/deliveries); BASF download button off the bins map
• Moisture: Three levels for every crop — dry up to, tough up to, wet over; damp and moist removed (limits cleared, damp tests regraded wet, save function takes three levels)
• Monthly jobs rebuilt: A copy per due month, assign as tasks, Monday meeting block, year report
• Nightly backup: Keep 3 days and make room before each save (old backups kept their 90-day expiry and filled the free storage); weekly copy to Google Drive, newest 12 kept
• Season menu: Bare ↗ for shortcuts in the sidebar and a wider sidebar, so labels aren't cut off; Claude and the TV account out of Tasks by person and Assign
• Season menu: Solid fill only on the page you're on; a folded section holding it gets green text and a dot
• Season menu: Soil & fertilizer heading in Planting; Tissue tests home in Growing; Manure home in Winter (also under Soil & fertilizer); Canola isolation renamed Isolation
• Season menu: The Planting heading is Fertility
• Season menu prep: Users.menu_prefs and the private task-feed token (hashed, own table, rotate/revoke RPCs)
• Season menu step 3: Spraying and Seed & planter split out of Chemicals and Calculator
• Season menu, step 1: The navigation engine, behind a per-user switch
• Seed forms: Comments in the shared files name no company
• Seed forms: FullLegal test uses no land the public copy's stand-ins would move
• Seed forms for any company: Generic seed report and bin temperature record; Corteva and BASF fenced farm-only
• Settings split into four views: My account, Users & access, Connections, Farm setup
• Signatures: Upload a picture of your signature (paper taken out, cropped) beside drawing it; your own signature printed on manifests and stock returns that name you
• Signatures: 'Upload your signature', not to be confused with the profile picture
• Tab bars: One row, no scrolling; what doesn't fit goes behind a ▾
• Tasks on your home screen: Private my-tasks link, /api/my-tasks feed, Scriptable/KWGT widget card
• Truck forecast: Name the crop and list a split field once in the no-forecast line
• Water: Each farm's own river and reservoir/snow stations, not this farm's built in
• Weigh in: Past loads list to open and correct any finished load; field History load rows open to edit
• Weigh in: 'Someone else' driver typed on the load (a temporary driver), past typed names suggested, never added to the people list

Fixed

• Bin map: A pin says its number alone, outlined in the pin's colour
• Bins: Past loads open from the bin pop-up again; the bin's own loads, reports and pins
• Bins: No BASF badge or BASF template downloads on a Corteva bin; its own reports are linked above
• Bins: The bins table's Site column is Yard
• Bins: HEIC scale photos show (converted to JPEG on the phone); the Bins tab is a card a bin on a phone
• Bins: A bin names the fields of what is in it now, not everything ever put in it; a move between bins carries the field it took
• Bins: The report's sensor reading is optional, so a hand-built one compiles
• Bins: The bin picture goes back to its old size, readings move beside them
• Bins: Warn when the screenshot is of a different bin, and keep the headspace flag
• Bins: The pin's own ring turns blue or red, not a ring outside it
• Bins: Say when a crop's own bin is full of something else
• Bins: 'Its one bin is full' rather than '1 of its 1 bin'
• Build: The weight the photo read can be null, and more tables fit a phone
• Build: Give every npm script the heap the build now needs
• Combines: Stop putting TASKDATA on the stick - the IntelliView IV has no ISO XML import
• Contracts: The scoping rule is its own tested function
• Fert: Program deadlines use the farm's date, not UTC's
• Fuel: A silent TELUS gauge says so, and the gauge replaces a typed level
• Fuel: A gauge's battery, solar panel and signal in volts and out of 31
• Fuel: The silent-gauge time on the farm's clock, as the notice says it
• General: Farm-date today everywhere left, expiring links off the device, last browser confirms, ticket photos removed with the ticket
• General: Tab bar crash when tabs change; quiet offline update checks
• Hauling: A typed place is checked against the farm, not a box around southern Alberta
• Invites: Apply the invited role when Supabase stamps invited_at
• Irrigation: Page the pivot passes the done-watering rule reads
• Links: In-app links go straight to the 24 Oct addresses, not through redirects
• Nav: The phone's More menu opens what you tap; reorder and hide behind Edit menu
• Notifications: The seed bin reminder names no company; it fires for every seed company's bins
• Phi: Pre-harvest intervals as cards on a phone
• Phone: The worst tables stop squeezing, and two buttons get a thumb
• Phone: Wider still where the text kept wrapping, and bigger info icons
• Phone: The last small buttons, and three tables that still wrapped
• Phone: Product prices and trucking read down the page, as cards
• Progress: Thumb-sized mark buttons, and FieldsPage back to LF
• Reports: Corteva forms entry fits the catalogue's one-line description
• Reports: Drivers' log: a typed driver name that is a person's name counts as that person
• Rotation: The follow-on ticks are grey, not browser blue
• Scale: One name a driver — lhansen/Lane to Lane Hansen, John to John Berg, paullena109/Paul to Paul Becker
• Tables: A card leaves out a column that draws nothing
• Tickets: The plant-loads table stays a table from sm up
• Tiles: The Bins tile is the Bin estimator; one search entry each for Bins and This device
• Time: The farm's own time zone everywhere, not Alberta's
• Ui: A pop-up is drawn on the page body above everything, and a dropdown left open behind it closes
• Ui: Phone views no longer squeeze the words into a column beside empty space
• Weigh in: Test weight only from Crop settings, no box on the load; a split load's share in the bin's Loads list
• Weigh in: Ask for the crop's test weight only once a crop is picked
• Weigh in: Simpler form: no Crop box when the field names its crop; the estimate tick only under Bin total
• Weigh in: Driver, truck and trailer always on the first step, not folded; driver defaults to whoever is signed in
• Weigh in: The Photo button fills its row
• Weigh in: Any active user can add a truck or trailer from the weigh-in (Lane got an RLS error); other equipment changes stay with managers
• Weigh in: Photo asks Camera or Gallery in the app; newer Android shows only Google Photos for a plain picker
• Weigh in: Past loads folded by default under the weigh-in form, open with a tap
• Weigh in: The scale photo is read twice, and the financials fit a phone
• Weigh in: The second read of the scale photo was never happening
• Weigh in: Sonnet 5.5 is told not to think its own way

This release has a file called changes-2026-10-29.patch holding just this
week's code. Download it and give it to your AI assistant with something like:

Here is this week's patch from the Farm Management System. Apply it to
my app. Where it touches something I have changed, keep my version's
behaviour and tell me what you did. If it adds anything to
supabase/migrations, tell me what to run on my database.

Or, if you have not changed much, pull the whole repository again.

1 more change this week only concerned the original farm's own setup and is not described here.

Plus 22 maintenance changes (build, tests, tooling, reference data) not listed one by one; they are in the patch.
